# Connect Discord

Part of the sendm8 docs: https://sendm8.com/docs#discord. Index for AI assistants: https://sendm8.com/llms.txt

Send every submission to a Discord channel. It uses a Discord webhook, so there’s no bot to invite and no permissions to grant. You’ll need **Manage Webhooks** on the server.

1. In Discord, open the server menu and choose **Server Settings → Integrations**.
2. Click **Webhooks**, then **New Webhook**.
3. Give it a name (sendm8 is fine), pick the channel submissions should go to, and click **Copy Webhook URL**.
4. In sendm8, open **Form settings → Channels → Discord** and paste it. It should start with `https://discord.com/api/webhooks/`.
5. Hit **Send test**. A test message should appear in the channel within a couple of seconds.

### What it looks like

_Example Discord message from sendm8:_

> Studio contact · new submission
>
> Alex Moreno wrote in
>
> - **name**: Alex Moreno
> - **email**: alex@moreno.dev
> - **message**: Hiya! Loved the portfolio. Are you free for a quick project in October?
>
> SM8 7Q2K 9F4X 3M · Spam score 0.04 · View in dashboard

> **Slack and Telegram work the same way**
>
> For Slack, create an incoming webhook for your channel and paste the `https://hooks.slack.com/…` URL. For Telegram, the dashboard walks you through making a bot and finding your chat id. Every channel has a Send test button, and none of them count towards the email limit.
